The Worriers first got our attention with the timeless indie punk tune ‘Little Lucy’, and I think ‘Cruel to be Kind’ is the near-perfect follow up.

Reminding me a little of fellow acts Gyroscope, Dune Rats and to a lesser degree Ball Park Music, The Worriers blur the lines of indie pop and punk, with their fantastic and easily accessible tunes. Racy, with the ideal level of angst, and ridiculously catchy vocal and guitar hooks, there is a lot to like about ‘Cruel to Be Kind’, and build the anticipation for their debut EP due out later this year.
